Try to install Release 5.1 for FESX which was released on 05-19-2009. We also raised a ticket on this, and Brocade claims that this issue is fixed in this new code.
We haven't been able to confirm the fix yet.

I have some FESX and SuperX switches doing simple L2 forwarding, and it seems that they are CPU switching all the flooded multicast traffic (the default behavior if you don't do igmp snooping). I opened a case on this and was told that these platforms are incapable of hardware flooding multicast traffic, which seems like a serious design flaw. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) _______________________________________________ foundry-nsp mailing list [email protected] http://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/foundry-nsp __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4113 (20090528) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4113 (20090528) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com _______________________________________________ foundry-nsp mailing list [email protected] http://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/foundry-nsp
